PureGym Belfast Boucher Road

Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff always friendly and helpful especially PT Stevie.

Positive experience: Don't waste time on expensive ice baths, have a standard freezing cold shower included in the price of your membership! The ladies showers have been cold for months, tepid at best, now they're ice cold and despite pressing all the showers on and doing so for about 4-5mins I only managed a lukewarm shower. I appreciate energy saving etc but cold showers and a max 20secs of water at a time is taking the proverbial. Otherwise gym is well facilitated, staff are generally helpful and friendly with a good selection of classes.

Fantastic experience: Excelent place for fitness

Fantastic experience: Can be busy and is quite small, but still a good gym, usually weekends don’t have staffing.

Negative experience: Disgusting, they don’t refill the soap in the men’s bathroom after multiple visits, so you know everyone is touching equipment with unclean hands. The second floor of the gym has the heating on super high, it’s way too hot. Avoid this place.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. Been going here for 3 months now and have no issues with it. I love that they have 4 dedicated racks unlike the PureGym in town which is bigger. This gym feels like home to me on my fitness journey. Thanks guys for providing such a great gym for us all.

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Positive experience: Always unstaffed the pts are always looking after there private clients

Fantastic experience: Good gym, all the kit you need with a decent layout. Visited on a Sunday at mid day and wasn't too busy.

Positive experience: Good gym

Positive experience: Pretty good use of the space. Clean, tidy, well staffed

Positive experience: Not enough room for everyone to get changed and showered in the a.m., lads queuing for the shower. the locker handles were all broken so you couldn’t lock your locker. But apart from that it’s a good gym with space and equipment.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym I go at least twice a week and I am very comfortable in there. All the staff are beyond friendly and so helpful. Also can’t recommend the PT Olly Bevan enough!

Positive experience: Busy but decent equipment

Fantastic experience: The gym is a very good, very clean and tidy ,equipment very good and space out very well. Always got a good number of equipment and you always find something for each muscle group. Changing rooms very clean but only thing would like is warmer is the showers they have good pressure but barely Luke warm

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience with pure Gym and it's 24/7 you come to the gym an minute or second you want no pressure on equipment it has got vast of most recent gym equipment.

Fantastic experience: The GYM was clean and had quite an equipments

Negative experience: Has always had an unfriendly atmosphere (particularly from the staff) but is progressively getting worse. Entire top floor, including all the cardio machines, is unusable because of the smell of raw sewage, which has been unresolved for weeks? Water fountain is consistently filthy, with actual green mould growing on the taps (which been the case for weeks). Paper towels/sanitizer spray almost never stocked. Music is often house music which is blasted at aggressive volume. Male staff walk in and out of the female changing rooms. Air con rarely used making it a sweat box for everyone. Please get it together, Pure Gym!

Fantastic experience: Lots of clean modern equipment. Nice and cool. Went before work midweek - plenty of space, no problem getting to any machine I needed.

Negative experience: More sarm goblins than lord of the rings has orcs, just avoid going at 17:00 you will regret life itself, its a commercial gym for a reason with everything that entails...

Fantastic experience: Somewhere I can completely destress and unwind.

Positive experience: Excellent facilities with very good area upstairs for circuit classes. Very busy in evenings round 5-6pm All areas are maintained to a high standard, with minor repairs made quickly

Positive experience: It alright not alot of space and very crammed

Positive experience: Over populated and not much of room to do your workout without bumping into other person. Bathrooms not very well kept. Weights left all over the place. I found some towels with blood in different days...But it was expected for a 24/7 gym and cheap price. Currently new feature: male changing room swimming pool.

Fantastic experience: It's clean, got Ac, lots of kit and pretty cheap

Fantastic experience: State of the art gym after the improvements made.

Fantastic experience: Clean, plenty kf equipment and good atmosphere. Great place for a quality workout.

Fantastic experience: Nice place , close to home and no one knows me , but , since i joined theres always work being done ; its a wee bit distracting ..... im sure it wont last

Fantastic experience: Very well equipped, especially post refresh. Plenty of squat racks, benches and functional machines. Staff helpful and friendly.

Positive experience: Good

Negative experience: ATTENTION FEMALES - male gym workers come into the female changing rooms while your getting undressed!! I contacted PureGym about this a few weeks back when it happened for the first time. Apparently it’s okay for them to do this as long as they shout staff check before they enter. It has now happened again even tho I shouted I am getting changed do not come in the male worker still entered the changing room I started shouting at the top of my lungs do not come in (he was already in and about to walk round the corner where the showers are) and he shouted sorry and ran out. I find this totally unacceptable the last thing you want when your getting showered is a man walking about the changing rooms - even tho I have complained nothing has been done. There was also a female PT on the floor who could have entered for a staff check rather than a man. Women you’ve been warned! In reply to the owner I actually already emailed Adam Copes when it happened the first time. Adam thinks it’s totally acceptable for men to enter the womens changing rooms as long as they shout in to let you know they are coming in. The second time it happened I shouted that I was getting changed and not to come in and he came in anyway - I think my review is therefore fair and should serve as a warning to other women who use this space to shower and change. It is important to have safe spaces for women to get changed, you don’t want to have to worry about male gym workers entering whenever they feel like it. Shouting your getting changed and don’t come in doesn’t seem to deter them. I also notice there is no signage in the changing rooms to warn women male workers may enter for staff checks - even when women workers are available and on the gym floor.

Fantastic experience: Good

Negative experience: I was a member of a different pure gym for years until I had to quit because it got too crowded, there was really no quiet times anymore unless you could go at 3am. Thought I’d give boucher a go after being away for a while. It has good equipment just not enough of it. Literally impossible to stick to a program when the place is packed out all the time, can’t get a rack, no space to deadlift cause it’s too crowded, can’t even get a bench at times. Walked out after 5 mins and cancelled my membership, reminded me why I quit PureGym in the first place, it’s far too busy to get anything done.

Fantastic experience: Excellent! For money open 24

Fantastic experience: It is a brilliant gym that is fantastic value for money.

Negative experience: Don't need it me and the dog use roids

Fantastic experience: My only request would be to have the music more upbeat and louder. Training with love songs is a downer. I understand that people have their own headphones but, the music should be played in each section of the gym and not down the back where it can hardly be heard. Thanks

Negative experience: Got to busy no matter the time and BO smell in this gym forced me to find a better gym

Fantastic experience: I like it but it can be very busy at times. Keep an eye on the app to see when it's not too busy and it's a great gym

Fantastic experience: Used this gym on a short-term basis. Generally: really good, no big complaints (although access is difficult if you don't have car access). It is much cleaner and better maintained then its equivalent on Adelaide Street. It is better spaced out and has a more modern feel to it. Changing rooms and shower area are infinitely better. Has everything you need and especially with cardio equipment. Maybe could use a few extra weight machines but has one of everything. Only (small) downside is the free weights are not in the order they are supposed to be - and not even close. Obviously this becomes impossible to maintain unless members are regularly reminded of this and monitored by staff.

Fantastic experience: Good friendly gym, apart from the 1guy that grunts loud like he's playing tennis, I would understand if he was lifting heavy weights. Puts a lot of people off there workout.

Fantastic experience: Open when you need it to be. Lots of machines. Friendly

Fantastic experience: Great gym plenty of stuff to use

Fantastic experience: Gyms well stocked, clean and professional for the price. Numbers a bit high for comfort with COVID still be present but plenty of hand sanitising and surface cleaning stations. Good value for money, main downsides are the wait limit for the carpark and the locker rooms being closed from midnight.

Positive experience: Apart from deadlifts other stuffs are available

Positive experience: Need more classes

Negative experience: Wife went to her 1st spin class on a sunday morning 9am only for the instructor not to turn up. How unprofessional pure gym. There was also other people booked for the spin who were left disappointed. Make sure you have committed staff and/or cover if nobody turns up

Fantastic experience: Back to training after being injured for over a year with surgery and covid hold up. The only downside is need to lose few pounds but all good. I noticed the whole staff team are new so was sad to see the old crew all gone not to mention the very sad passing of Sean the personal trainer my thoughts go out to his family and friends. The new staff all seem friendly and always have smiles on there faces which is good to be around so just glad to be back to pure gym doing wat I love with the best gym out there with the best prices.

Fantastic experience: Good gym, friendly people and good trainers

Positive experience: I've been a member a few times over the years, it's a fine gym, clean and tidy. I see other people mention the up to date equipment, unfortunately this does not extend to the treadmills and static bikes which are very dated models. Last year it had a much vaunted upgrade, this was new carpet, paint and they moved the machines around. I'll rejoin once they 'upgrade' the equipment.

Positive experience: Most of the showers don't work, people don't clean machines down after use.

Negative experience: I attended this gym last Tuesday and I was overhead pressing 120kg, 4 sets of 5. This is a weekly routine for me. While I was doing this I could see a pt constantly watching me which made me feel very uncomfortable. At the end of my workout the pt which I believe is called karla approached me and said next time drop the weight and sets next time in a rude manner. If I wanted the opinion pt I'd pay for one, later one of my friends took a screenshot of the pts post on instagram which detailed her approaching me in the gym telling me to drop the weight with reference of my big ego in her post I find very unprofessional and won't be back.

Fantastic experience: Refill your juice machine thing there is no passion fruit flavour left

Fantastic experience: Very well and plenty of sanitisation

Positive experience: Shower area is really bad, its tiny and I expected it to have some more controls, just one temperature available.

Fantastic experience: Imádom

Fantastic experience: Helga me so much

Positive experience: Good functional gym, plenty of cardio upstairs plus abs space and spin space. Downstairs has a decent amount of free weight space. Staff seemed friendly and changing room was very clean. As you'd expect from PureGym really.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with friendly and helpful staff and relaxed atmosphere

Fantastic experience: Love it

Fantastic experience: Staff very helpful have everything you need

Fantastic experience: Wonderful

Positive experience: Good gym and cheaper

Fantastic experience: A very friendly gym with loads of different weights and machines to choose from. Very clean and helpful personal trainers.

Fantastic experience: Quality equipment Accessibility Very good

Fantastic experience: All members are wiping down their stations. Staff have been enforcing training alone which is reassuring. Please please please keep up the work

Fantastic experience: Great space and love the layout. ATM it's also great for cleanliness. Best when below 50 there. Anything above is busy

Positive experience: Standard pure gym layout. staff on their phones or huddling talking to each other. Users hogging machines which is annoying. 1 chap using squat rack for over 30 mins, used it for 1 set, walked away and prowled up and down the floor for 5 minutes trying to "psych" people out then did another set..... then same "psych" technique, then back to his 3rd 60kg set -_-

Negative experience: Had a car parking ticket in the pure gym car park

Negative experience: Gym has been refurbished and they have made some huge mistakes in layout. Have reduced the space for free weight bench exercises, reduced space around squat racks and fixed weights machines have been pushed as close together as possible. All this the make extra space for a rack that only 4 can work at.. a lot of poor layout choices. Good gym turned bad.

Positive experience: Not enough space for weights

Fantastic experience: Good gym

Positive experience: good gym, stuff not friendly or helpful

Positive experience: Half decent gym can be really busy at times

Fantastic experience: Well stocked, no complaints

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym with big free weights area, good variety of cardio equipment and staff present to help if needed.

Fantastic experience: The gym to go to. Newish equipment and 24hr. Everything you need.

Positive experience: Super. No one bothers you. Lots of classes.

Negative experience: Last week whilst myself and a friend were in the gym using machinery, a PT approached us and claimed that himself and a client had been using one of the machines that we were currently using. He stated that he had left his water bottle on top of the equipment and therefore it was being used. We explained that there had been no one on the machinery for the few minutes before we approached it and we didn't think it was in use, just that someone had left a bottle by mistake. He was clearly annoyed when we told him we'd be a few minutes on the machinery and made a point of standing behind us and loudly talking about the situation to his client, which was intimidating. It has made me feel uncomfortable about going to the gym in the future and I am considering switching gyms. I understand that the gym is the PT's workplace and he was providing a service to his client, however I'm paying a membership and I don't expect to be intimidated out of the gym by a member of staff. He could have easily wheeled the machinery to the corner he was working in and it would have been clear not to use it. It's really let the location down as the other PT's within the gym have been really friendly and great within the classes.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Plenty of up to date equipment and space.

Fantastic experience: Does what it says on tin !!!!

Fantastic experience: Love it. Brilliant atmosphere and equipment. Staff very nice and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Positive experience: Reasonable prices. Well equipes. Avoid peak hours

Positive experience: I love the fact that it's 24hr but my only gripe is this - does the music need to be shaking the walls at 3am? Even with my own headphones it's almost impossible to block it out. Maybe there's somewhere it can be turned down if I'm the only person in the building?

Positive experience: Gym is great and my PT Barry Reynolds has really helped me to gain my goals.

Positive experience: Great gym, However can be every busy
